Ben Affleck has become the latest star to sign up for a role in Mike Judge's new comedy Extract.

The actor joins a cast that includes Jason Bateman, Mila Kunis and Kristen Wiig. Clifton Collin Jr. has also been added to the movie.

Judge's latest project is about a flower-extract plant owner going through a hideous run of bad luck. Affleck's role is an ambulance-chasing lawyer, according to Variety.

The project begins shooting in LA on Monday.
